Steel road frame for Boston

This frame will also be paired with a fork that should be completed tomorrow. The future owner told me that the streets of Boston are not bike friendly and full of chuckholes. My hope is that the tubeset I used ( a mixture of True Temper OX and Columbus ) will be up to the task. I did not weigh the frame but it feels pretty light.

The 34.8 MM diameter downtube is stout- the gussett is just insurance against buckling .

I put the bends in the seat stays myself.......makes for a unique look.
